    Editorial Cartoon: Celebrity Moms Alicia Silverstone and January Jones

    Dr Benjamin Spock never thought of this motherly advice when he was writing his parenting books in the 40’s.  But celebrity moms are always on the cusp of what is cool and hip when it comes to child raising.  First it was the trend to name your kid Apple, Apricot or anything else no one else ever has just to be original.   Now in the past week there is news of both January Jones and Alicia Silverstone showcasing their own tips.

    January Jones revealed that she has her placenta dehydrated and crushed into pills that she took which she said helped her recover faster from childbirth.  According to an Inforum article that discussed her decision it stated:

    In some cultures, it is commonplace to consume the afterbirth. While placenta encapsulation is not FDA-approved in the U.S., the practice has become more popular as midwifery and home births continue to rise in this country.

    Research has shown that the afterbirth is indeed a nutrient-packed pouch, and it has been touted as a way to prevent post-partum depression and promote a fast recovery after pregnancy. There is no hard evidence that humans benefit from consuming it, though.

    Also this past week, Alicia Silverstone revealed on her website that she has been feeding son Bear Blu bird style by chewing up food and then feeding him directly in the mouth.  This video has gone viral.

    So fess up female BEARMANiacs, something you would do yourself or are you kinda ooked by either?

    Rejected Readers Digest Cartoon Screw Loose

    First of all let me start by saying, I love the Reader’s Digest and love the cartoons in them.  In fact, rumor has it that Nate might have a cartoon in there soon.

    However, our friend Bschooled has an ongoing series on her blog entitled Readers Digest – Rejected Humor Submissions (see here, here, here ), where she posts humorous takes on things that probably wouldn’t get passed the RD editors.  I have been teasing her that I would start doing a cartoon series ala the same style as in the magazine.   Ones that would never see the light of day at Reader’s Digest.  So here is the first.

    My wife took one look at it and said “That is the dumbest cartoon I have ever seen”  EXACTLY.  Success!!!  My goal is to periodically add to the rejected RD series with cartoons  that the jokes are so syrupy sweet or bad that they actually are funny.

    Got any ideas?  Feel free to send via contact form, email or in the comments.  We don’t want to make them too good or the editors at RD might actually want to pay me for my work.  And if that is the case, you can forget me showing you the finished product first.   I’ll make you go buy the magazine.
